Abstract

Protection of manpower during operation in hot and cold water (on ice), being in the open air at low temperature is provided by internal heat insulation lining of individual protection costume with elements of positive buoyancy. The work developed and describes the procedure for calculating the thickness of the heat insulation lining, taking into account the values of dimensional features of a typical figure of a person. The studies enabled to establish an optimal package of materials with the best characteristics of thickness and thermal conductivity. The results of the work were implemented during the creation of a model of heat insulation lining at the Uniform Enterprise in Mikashevichi.
